Freelance software engineer specializing in custom digital solutions.
What I'm looking for
I am a dedicated freelance software engineer with a strong background in developing tailored digital solutions for clients. My journey began with a Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, followed by an Engineering Degree, which equipped me with the technical skills necessary to excel in the field. I have collaborated with various organizations, including MaterDev Solutions and Buynamics Technologies, where I focused on creating user-friendly websites and applications.
Throughout my career, I have successfully led projects that involved rewriting frontend applications using React, implementing design systems with Storybook, and developing comprehensive backend solutions with Java and Spring Boot. My experience also includes mentoring junior developers, managing product backlogs, and applying Agile methodologies to enhance project workflows. I take pride in delivering high-performance solutions that meet client needs while ensuring a seamless user experience.
In addition to my technical expertise, I am passionate about empowering small businesses through technology. As the founder of Shopzilla.tn, I created an online marketplace that supports artisans and small brands in establishing their digital presence. I believe in the power of collaboration and continuously strive to improve my skills and contribute to innovative projects.
